Santo Calegari (1662–1717) was an Italian sculptor of the late Baroque period who was mainly active in Brescia.
He trained with Alessandro Algardi. His son, Alessandro (1698–1777), was also a sculptor.
The statue of Angela Merici was erected in the main square of Desenzano del Garda in 1772, by Gelfino Calegari.[1]
